Today is the first big day. Games all day.

Cuba v Panama currently on FS2.

USA plays Brazil tonight on FS1

Japan went off this morning on Taiwan. 13-0 with Ohtani hitting an early grand slam. Not a great WBC for Taiwan who lost to Australia to open the WBC 2 days ago.

without adding the appropriate context.

There’s a reason why we’re seeing that every sporting event for the last 6+ months is the most watched since X date, and it’s because in Sept 2025 Nielsen changed their model to more accurately reflect out-of-home sports viewership.

It’s a huge change that drives all the numbers up significantly.

It meant the world to them and their fans, quite clearly does not for US fans and likely most of the players. Tons of people from that country are waking up today feeling like we would if the Illini had won a national championship last night, versus every US fan never giving it a second thought within an hour of the game ending (had we won).

I know I’m painting with a broad brush and obviously there are some people that care, but the US treated it like an exhibition tournament and Venezuela treated it like the biggest games of their lives. It felt a little hollow rooting for the US team to win with that dynamic in play.

He was supposed to use 2023 as a spring board to a job in mlb

Everyone hyped it then he was mediocre and no one was impressed.

Just go back to like legendary retired guys like Jim Leyland who won in 2017

Also David Ross as bench coach

If Ross took the bench coaching job in New York in 2024 I bet he’d have another major league job by now.

But he was too good for it.

This assumes 9 inning game

Italy beats Mexico - USA/Italy in

Mexico wins and scores 4 or less - Mexico/Italy in

Mexico wins and scores 5 or more - Mexico/USA in

Seems like this should be pretty good odds for the US to advance. All thanks to PCA*

If it ends 8-5

They need one of

Italy to score 7 runs in a 9 inning loss to Mexico

Mexico to score 7 runs vs Italy in a 9 inning win

The last scenario you listed doesn’t seem too implausible at least*
